Lets's calculate LCM of 746,9584
2 | 746, 9584 |
373, 4792 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 373 x 4792 = 3574832
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/3574832
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5908/746,5279/9584 is 1/3574832
The formula of LCM is LCM(a1,a2,a3....,an) = ( a1 × a2 × a3 × .... × an) / GCF(a1,a2,a3....,an) x common factors(if more than 2 numbers have common factors).
We need to calculate greatest common factor of 746,9584 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(746,9584) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(746,9584) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(746,9584) = ( 746 × 9584 ) / 2
LCM(746,9584) = 7149664 / 2
LCM(746,9584) = 3574832
